The flush valve has a nut between the tank and the bowl. I think that's the flush valve. I just use the term Ball Cock or Fluidmaster for the water entering valve. I look it up on the net and thought what I was referring to was the flush valve. I meant th epeice in the middle that the flapper ball sits on. If I am in error, sorry.

why remove the tank? I have replaced flush valves without removing the tank and have never had a problem. Just wondering

At this point, check to be sure your flush ball is the right size for the flush valve and it's not getting caught on anything (the chain might get tangled or even get caught underneath it if the chain is left too long) or if it's not too tight and the lever actually drops (sometimes, it might get stuck in a high position than it's supposed to be, preventing the ball from completely seating). If everything looks good, separate the tank from the bowl and replace the innards.

I have a toilet that occasionally keeps running after you flush it.
By jiggleing the handle it stops. I've replace the rubber stop twice but it still happens. Lately it seems to be happening more often.
Any suggestions?
